Festive Events & Fayre Frolicks

Anyone else feeling a tad overwhelmed and need another maybe 4 hours per day to make it through to Christmas?

Can’t be just me!

Me and the hubby!
Chatsworth was stunning – we definitely picked the best weekend to go. It was cold, crisp and dry – perfect. Over a 100 stalls and I drank my bodyweight in hot chocolate and YES I had whipped cream and marshmallows EVERY time! One girl was sensible and put the marshmallows underneath the whipped cream – it may not look as good but it stopped them from flying around.
Banquet Hall
Anyway, I made a hat to go with my woollen coat – I got some lovely chunky wool from a new yarn shop in our local town in Haverfordwest, Randmstitch run by Mel who was really helpful when I called in there. The wool is black and anyone that knits or crochets knows that if you make something in black you should charge triple – good job it was for myself – anyway I was still hooking it on the journey up to Chatsworth.
Cheerful but chilly!
This month will see us returned to a family of four under the same roof which I am soo looking forward to. We fetched Child 2 last week – managing a quick overnight stop whilst there and a visit to the brilliant National Trust Back to Backs – which I can fully recommend! Safe to say that the family pets were rather pleased to have him home too.
Spectacular grandeur
My plan, once the craft fairs are done, is to have a look at what outstanding WIP’s I have (to be fair it doesn’t look like I made a dent in the stash sinceJanuary) and work on them over Christmas – happy festive hooking to you all.
